다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Research investigating physical fitness in the elderly has conducted with full attention in the elderly society; however, the research has focused on female subjects and integrative study examining relationship among age, falling experience, and exercise habit has been limited. Therefore, the present study was designed to investigate the effects of age, falling experience, and exercise habit on physical fitness for activities of daily living in the elderly men. The subjects were 125 elderly men. who were composed of falling experienced(n=43) and non-experienced(n=82) individuals. At the same time they were composed of individuals who had exercise habit(n=79) and who did not have exercise habit(n=46). Physique, variables regarding to body composition. and physical fitness were measured and compared by aforementioned independent variables. All components except power declined significantly with aging. Falling experienced individuals had lower physical fitness level than non-experienced individuals. Individuals who had exercise habit had higher physical fitness level than who did not have exercise habit. To prevent falling injury. exercise intended to enhance dynamic balance and flexibility should be included exercise program for elderly men. Finally, elderly men should participate in exercise program on the regular basis for their successful aging.
